Johns credits defensive solidity

COLERAINE goalkeeper Chris Johns heaped praise on the defence in front of him after the Bannsiders’ 1-0 win against Linfield…

An own goal by Mark Stafford would prove to be difference on the Ballycastle Road as the Stripes earned a third successive clean sheet in the Danske Bank Premiership.

The shot stopper insists he has had very little to do in those three games due to the overall performances by those in front of him.

Johns looks ahead to Tuesday night’s BetMcLean League Cup quarter-final against Dundela and insists the Bannsiders have a score to settle in the competition.
